I have rewritten our multiproject build to add support for windows. The new goals all start with m: so as to not disrupt our current stuff. Assuming everyone is happy, I would like to remove the current multiproject and reactor goals (and drop the m: prefix). This is only a proposal, so if people don't like it I can just delete or refactor the goals.

Before I get to the new goals, there are a few weirdism. I disabled the activemq tests as they take for ever (like 30 minutes) and eventually fail. This is a hard coded disable, as maven 1 would not let me do it in a more elegant way. I also disabled the openejb itests as they fail every time. This failure is due to something outside of the multiproject build (i.e. it happens in standalone openejb). I also had to disable the geronimo itests as they use some artifacts from the openejb itests. Hopefully these problems can be worked out and all of the test reenabled. I have verified that the current goals work on Mac OS X and Windows. Anyway, on the the new goals....


The main goals for the new multiproject build are:

m:default or m:build
    Executes default build for all available project modules

m:clean
   Deletes the 'target' directory in all available project modules

m:clean-repo
Deletes the local repository artifacts of ActiveMQ, Geronimo, HOWL, OpenEJB, and TranQL. NOTE: This may cause problem is you do not have the source for the all of the other projects available.


m:rebuild
    Same as m:clean m:default

m:rebuild-all
Same as m:clean m:clean-repo m:default and it includes geronimo-spec modules


m:checkout or m:co
    Checks out ActiveMQ, HOWL, OpenEJB, and TranQL

m:update
Updates ActiveMQ, Geronimo, HOWL, OpenEJB, and TranQL from cvs/svn HEAD


m:fresh-checkout
BE CAREFUL: Deletes checkout of ActiveMQ, HOWL, OpenEJB, and TranQL and checks them out again



In addition to the above we support a -Dmodules command line option which is a comma separated list of module names (ie. common, core, ...)
